Dict: easton - Kir

easton:

Kir @ a wall or fortress, a place to which Tiglath-pileser carried the Syrians captive after he had taken the city of Damascus ( kjv@2Kings:16:9; kjv@Amos:1:5 kjv@Amos:9:7). Isaiah (22:6), who also was contemporary with these events, mentions it along with Elam. Some have supposed that Kir is a variant of Cush (Susiana), on the south of Elam.

Kir of Moab @Isaiah:15:1. The two strongholds of Moab were Ar and Kir, which latter is probably the Kir-haraseth (16:7) following.
